Answer:
5900 at 11%
3600 at 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
x= invested at 11%
y= invested at 8%
x+y=9500
.11x+.08y=937
Mulitply the first equation by .11
.11x+.11y= 1045
Subtract this and the second equation
(.11x+.11y)-(.11x+.08y)=1045-937
.03y=108
y=3600
SOlve for x
x+3600=9500
x=5900
Answer:
It will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
To make a 9-inch lemon pie requiring 1/2 cup of lemon juice.
1 cup = 16 tablespoons
1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons
That means we only need 8 tablespoons.
Each lemon yields 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
Number of lemon required = 8 ÷ 2 = 4
That means we need only 4 lemon.
Store is selling lemons at 2 for $3 that means 4 lemons for $6.
Hence, it will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.
